Cogeco doesn't throttle, or block, anything. They do have bandwidth caps, but they're soft, and they just charge $5/GB over the cap, to a maximum of $30 extra. Most people I know just factor the extra $30 into their bill. Personally, I have never hit my cap, although it's a commercial cap. ^_^ 200 GB/mo.

As a circumcised male, who's father is circumcised, and who's father is too, it's not a health matter (it IS easier to clean than with a foreskin, and children are not known for their cleanliness), it's definitely a cosmetic issue, and it has to do with the child's identity development. Child sees the father's penis (for whatever reason) and it's circumcised while the child's isn't? Child goes "WTF? Why doesn't mine look like that? What's wrong with me?! Am I a freak?! Why am I different?!" (I have had first hand experience seeing this phenomenon in action: my cousin wasn't circumcised, and he freaked out when he saw his my uncle's penis one day after accidentally walking into the bathroom while his dad was getting out of the shower).

Technically, the Nintendo 64 Disk Drive -- N64DD -- predates the PS2 HDD by about two years. But thanks for playing, chumps.

In order to fix the sentence, it has to be changed like so:

See? Fixed!

And suddenly specialized operating systems and wireless systems will start sprouting up shortly after they announce the patches for the network kill switch. And remember, you won't have any ISP service either, because they'll be shut down too. I propose a giant mesh network that exists expressly through the 802.11x standard (or maybe something better) and bluetooth networks, with all traffic encrypted. Suddenly this mesh version of Internet2 will become instantly popular, and then the government is considered largely useless and will be subsequently overthrown. BTW, isn't it true that most internet traffic runs through the US? Wouldn't this cybersecurity czar be able to shut down the entire 'net at the push of a button? I'm not too sure how my government would respond to that (probably with open arms, while we have that idiot as Minister Prime).

I'm sorry, Star Wars Battlefield is probably not the best example of a rebranded concept, even for strategy games. Empire at War (did space battles right, ground battles felt a little too slow), and Rebellion (did galaxy-wide conquest right, failed on the space battles. And don't even look for ground battles -- they just don't exist) are the two that really spring to mind.

I'm going to call bullshit. Robert Tappen Morris didn't get the kid gloves, and nobody even died when he screwed up.
